AN: YA KNOW THE FUCKING DRILL. DONT OWN SHIT. LETS CONTINUE.
Location: 'Gothic Emo Castle' (Six's POV):
Time: 16:00 (The Next Day)
Sigh. Can this fucking day get anymore weirder?
After hearing ol' Reddy's story on how She got her- Let me pause that real quick and explain it for the reader. For starters, she came from some world Called Remnant and was defeating this... Fireball throwing lady before she struck her with the same arrow I yanked out. It Gets more brain scratching as she explained more.
Daemon emo dogs? Death pit schools? Immortal Headmasters? Silver eyed scythe-rifle carrying Girls? Furry Raiders? DUST? WHO THE FUCK THOUGHT DUST WAS A GOOD FORM OF GUNPOWDER? WHAT KIND OF SADISTIC BASTARD THOUGHT UP THAT REALM!?
ANYWAYS ENOUGH OF THAT. BACK TO THE STORY.
We ended up in some Gothic emo castle and helped out an old man who got lost from a wolf attack.
When we got inside, it felt… Oddly familiar to me.. Too Familiar. The four of us started scouting the place, while Maurice, the old man from earlier, stayed behind.
Could've sworn I heard other voices as we-
"Something on your mind, Six?" Pyrrha asked.
"Jesus, Pyrrha" I whispered, "Ya startled me." I snapped back.
"I'm Sorry, I thought you were Fearless." She joked, then started to whisper a name that sounded like a "John" to me.. "Please don't play Johnny Guitar right now, Mr. New Vegas." My Thoughts pleaded.
Raul then joined in. Taking over the depressed cosplayer. "Boss." He started. "You're just really muy tranquilo about this place.. Got some theories?" He asked back.
"To be frankly honest Raul, I know what this castle is." I answered.
"Ya do!?" He whispered, "I knew you weren't crazy, boss! What is it?" He answered, ignoring his joke again. "Oh boy, how do I explain this?"
"I don't know how but.. There was a company before the war that made a film on an old French novel." I started. "It looked exactly like this, down to the hand drawn details.. Gang, as much as I hate to say it, we're in the world of Disney." I finished. Noticing everyone, even Pyrrha, wide eyed at my answer.
"¿qué?"/"WHAT!?"/"CONFUSED BEEPING*" All three systematically shouted quietly.
A few seconds of silence followed as Pyrrha steps forward..
"First off. How do we get out? Second, What's a Di-" She started asking when I heard an all too familiar growl.
"Shit." I whispered, panicked. "You Three, hide in that room. I'll take care of this."
"You sure boss?" Raul answered, "Because that sounded awfully a lot like deathcla-" He gets cut off as he hears Maruice from earlier, being dragged away.
"JUST DO IT GOD DAMNIT" I quietly shouted.
The three took their hiding spots as I prepared for the worst. Unholstering my Brush Gun, the creature started to approach us in force, growling.
"I sense more STRANGERS Here." It shouted. "SHOW YOURSELF COWARDS BEFORE I CLAW YOU TO PEI-" He stopped as I fired directly at his feet.
"I would hold it right there, Beast." I said. Cocking the lever-action. "Or should I say… Prince Adam?" I answered back. My helmet's red eyes glaring at it's cold blue.
The furry deathclaw stopped after hearing that name. I swore to god I saw tears in its eyes as it tried to claw at me. I stepped back as it pinned me to a wall. Knocking my brush gun on the marble floor.
"HOW DO KNOW MY NAME!?" He shouted. "ARE YOU A REVOLUTIONIST OUT FOR MY HEAD? HUH?" His voice started to croak. I swore I saw small tears falling down as he held me in place.
Shit. Have to answer quickly without making my gang or the reader even more confused. I took a deep breath, as I started my explanation.
"First off, Adam. I know everything.. Your parents dying from revolutionists, you being cursed after not letting her in, the whole sha-bang." I continued. "Now how about we settle down and I'll explain everything. In return, I'll be your personal bodyguard. Разумем?"
As I finished, Adam loosened his grip and handed me my dropped Brush Gun, holstering the rifle as the Beast started to speak again.
"Alright. Grab your friends and meet me in the west wing. We'll discuss the rest there. I'll make sure we're the only… People, besides my servants know about this deal, Got it?" His voice snapped back towards the door leading into the dungeon.
"Will do. Gang, you can come out now. We've got shit to discuss" I said, as the rest of my gang revealed themselves to the Furry Deathclaw and walked towards the West Wing.
"Wait… Where the hell is Graham?" I thought. Thinking about the burnt Mormon who also got sucked in here.
Location: A certain little town.. (POV Switch to Third Person)
Time: 12:00 (A few hours earlier)
In a little town not far from where The Courier landed, a makeshift wedding is being prepared.
Men were slowly setting up the festivities, a band was checking their instruments, and a triplet of blondes were tear-dropping like hell.
In the middle of these festivities, best described by future historians and internet users as "the true first giga-chad", is Gaston. Dressed up and groomed to perfection, ready to propose to a certain brunette named Belle.
The festival preparation suddenly halts, as Gaston directs their attention to him.
Ahem "I'd like to thank you all for coming to my Wedding." He started, sounding enthusiastic. 'Everything's set. Nothing can mess this up now!' He thought.
"But first I better go in there.. And propose to the girl." He joked back. the townsfolk start to laugh while the bimbettes start bawling even more.
In the background, a man in bandages watches the scene from afar. His hands gripped on an ivory Pistol.
"AND YOU, Lefou." Gaston said. Pulling his small sidekick up from the ground. "Now when Belle and I come out that door-"
"OH I KNOW! I KNOW!" Lefou Interrupted, "I'll Strike up the Band!"
The "band" starts playing a crudely done "Here Comes the Bride" snippet with Lefou conducting.
The band stops after Gaston shuts him up with a literal tuba. "NOT. YET." Chadston called back.
"P'sforry." He said. His tongue sticking out from a piece of the instrument as Gaston starts to knock on the supposed girl's home.
(???'s view):
The armed figure, who watched the scene from afar, is disgusted.
"I've seen unholy things in my time on the Legion.. But that man is walking the same path as Edward.. God help the girl's soul." The figure said nothing more as just a few minutes later, as Gaston flies out of the house, shoeless into a muddy pond. The band from earlier playing the same crude snippet in full force.
"Hmph… At least she's smart." He said. Then paused and focused on Gaston angrily marching away. "I'm sensing something sinister... Will think about that later." The figure muttered, then turned his eyes turning back towards the house.
An hour or two after the party split up, a new figure appeared. A brunette young woman, somewhere in her early 20s in a rural pre-war dress. It's Belle. She poked her head out the door, nervous if anyone was still there. "Is he gone?" She whispered. Not noticing the figure in the woods.
"Can you imagine?" She said out loud to nobody in sight. "He asked me to marry him.. ME! The 'wife' of that boorish. Brainless.." As she finished, disembodied music started to fill the area around Belle and the Figure as she started singing.
OST Begin - Belle's Reprisal.
(???'s view):"Why in Zion do I hear a band playing?" The figure thought.
As he looked around in confusion, then at the girl. He starts moving closer, Praying his presence won't scare her.p
A few seconds later. The Girl starts raising her singing voice as she starts to run right in the vicinity of his hiding spot.
"I want adventure in the great wide somewhere… I wanted more than I can tell~" Belle sang, singing out loud like it's a musical. She starts to crouch down to the ground, not noticing the man staring in absolute confusion at the random song number.
"And for once it might be…" She stops. As she starts noticing the mysterious figure. The music suddenly stops as well.
OST End
(???? View): For a few seconds nothing happened.., Until Belle started panicking. "OH MERDE! HOW LONG WERE YOU WATCHING!?" Belle screamed, now noticing the figure's mummified face.
"I'm awfully sorry about that child. But I didn't want to scare anyone in this unfamiliar land. Lord knows what they'll think about seeing The Legions former Legate..." The man said, as he walked a bit closer to her. Holstering a Short Barreled 1911 with engravings of an ancient Language.
"I hope you understand.." The man said, finally revealing himself to Belle as he helped her up from the ground.
"I- It's fine Monsieur… it's just that I thought you were Gasto-" Belle stopped as the burned man was about to say something when a horse started rushing to the two carrying a cart.
"Is that a horse?" Joshua muttered. Many waterlanders thought Horses were extinct. Yet here was one panting like the creature's seen Lanius.
"Phillippe! What are you doing he- Where's… Where's Papa?" She asked, interrupting Joshua's train of thought.
"Where is he Phillipe, you have to take me to him. NOW!" Belle, panicking, starts unhooking the horse from its load and starts to grab onto it.
"Phillipe, Stop real quick!" Belle exclaimed to her horse, stopping her steed as Belle looks back to the mummified stranger. "I'm sorry. But I need to go. My papa's in danger a-"
"It's alright child. Mind if I tag along? I lost track of the rest of my flock as well. It'll be best if we work together. Like Moses to the Hebrews of Egypt, escaping their Tormentors" He answered. Confusing Belle on his holy bible references. "Mon Dieu. He really must be religious..." She thought.
"Euh… Bien sûr!" Belle exclaimed. Then realized something. "Wait mousier! What's your name?" She asked nervously.
"I assume you want my name?" He replied. "Very well then..."
"I, am Joshua Graham. The former Malpais Legate of Caesar's Legion. Though, known to many now in The Mojave, as The Burned Man." Joshua announced, noting Belle's eyes sparkle in curiosity.
"Now let us hurry. If we start walking to your Papa's location, we'll be able to avoid the Wolves lurking in these forests. If they try to intervene, We can't expect God to do all the work." He finished, with a bit of venom in his tone as Belle and her new "companion" start their journey into the woods.
Location: Central Pennsylvania (Location Change)
Time: Ten hours of New Vegas Lore later: Billy, meanwhile, had just finished the entire ten hour lore presentation to Jim, his wife, pets, and His wife's Crazy Aunt Sarah.
"Now then… Are there any questions from you feeble mortals?" Billy shouted back.
The Aunt, having heard everything, passes out from exhaustion. One of the pets, a gray mixed-breed 'tramp' broke the silence.
"HA! AUNT SARAH PASSED OUT. YOU OWE ME FIFTY TREATS, PIDGE!" He exclaimed much to the horror of Elizabeth, Jim, and Billy.
"...What? Why the long faces, Ji- oh…" Tramp stopped, then realized something.. "D- Did you just hear me?"
The couple and Billy slowly nod as Jim gets out of his chair, looking like he's had it with today.
Grabbing his hat and coat, he rushed right to the front Door.
"I'm.. I'm gonna see if there's a train ready for me at the Lewistown Yard.. See ya in a couple days, hon!" Jim said, running out much to Liz's anger.
"WAIT JIM DEAR COME BAAAAND He's gone…" Liz yelled, then focused her attention to the Sentry Bot.
"Well Billy.. Welcome to our house. You want a tour o-"
"WAIT YOU FUCKING KNEW ABOUT THIS!?" Billy interrupted.
"Unfortunately.. Yes." Liz answered
"OKAY. DON'T CARE. THERE'S TALKING CUTE PUPPIES. MY LIFE IS COMPLETE! PETTING MODE ACTIVATED. HAAAAAAAAA-" Billy started rushing towards them the same way as he arrived.
"СХИТ BILLY WAIT!" Liz shouted, nearly tripping on a still unconscious Aunt Sarah "DON'T HURT THEM! ЈЕБ ЈЕ КАО ЈУНИОР ALL OVER AGAIN..."
The camera fades away as Liz tries to pick up the sentry bot from hurting her dogs..
AN: THIRD CHAPTER DONE. JESUS CHRIST.
I'm gonna have a hard time trying to reveal Six's Knowledge on this world without sounding too nonsensical. Hope to god it works. If not, eh fuck it. 'Least It's better than The 16 Million word Loud House Fic.
Now originally I had several ideas on how to integrate Joshua's first encounters in this new world, but settled with him appearing during Gaston's failed makeshift wedding.
Yeah it does come out like he's a creep. But I mean… Wouldn't you? This isn't the wasteland where Legion assassins' can fuck you up anywhere, if they see a man covered in bandages or better yet wielding an unfamiliar pistol, they'd start calling Joshua a demon and try hunting him down.
Sure as hell I wouldn't, unless you want a repeat of Boulder City.
One last thing. You may be confused on why "PA and Lewiston" were mentioned in the Billy segments. Simple really.
In the original and sequel "Lady and the Tramp" Films, The town they resided in reassembled a normal northeastern small town with industries, a railroad that curved its way towards the camera, a small yard with a junction for a branch line crossing a river, and a trolley network.
Most people say it's in Missouri, I but I call bullshit on that theory.
Instead, I looked towards IRL towns in my area and chose Lewistown (59 Miles east of Harrisburg) as my headcanon location for the film. Both have similar features and are covered by hilly terrain with a river flowing through it. Is it stupid? Yeah. But It works, I guess?
Real answer as to why, I just needed a way to integrate my schizophrenic Railroad Lore in somehow. It'll be small details. Don't worry. Nothing major.
Anyways, That's it for now. I will start work on the next chapter soon. Get ready kids, shit's about to get more insane.
